Re: 2024 Offseason Program

Sorry, still can't get on the Swift move. Too many disappointments when he played here for the Lions. Always hurt or had excuses. Didn't seem to give a damn. I hope he's changed and I'll root for him but not overly excited about the move. Not a Swifty in more ways than one, lol Speaking of Swifty h...

Re: Is It Too Soon For Thoughts On Pick #9?

https://x.com/BillyM_91/status/1780949602646028592 There's that name again... Glad you brought that up because I was about to. Murphy seems to be rising on quite a few boards and if a top three WR isn't on the board at #9 he's probably a guy Poles and Flus should look at very seriously. He's pretty...

Re: My Guy for the 2024 Draft

So I didn't really have a guy that meets the definition of a "my guy" in this draft (later round guy you think can be special), but in reading some stuff I came across Bo Richter edge from Air Force. I think I really like this guy. I always want to see guys that go to the service program s...

Re: Jer’zhan Newton

Foot problems with large men are as scary as knee problems for WR/RBs. They are typically chronic I’m more nervous about Latu then Newton from an injury standpoint I think I am as well. But part of that is I think you have to get Latu about 12 and you can get Newton early 20s. So maybe willing to r...

Re: New Bears numbers, so far

Yeah, I think Allen is a one-year rental. Trade a 4th, get a solid year out of him and let him walk for a higher comp pick. I concur that Allen is a one-off. He won't be worth more than a 5th round comp pick, though, because he's a ten-year veteran and that's where those max out. Players who have t...
